Game Of Thrones sixth season has been so great, many are saying it is the strongest beginning to a season yet. Personally, the fourth season is my favorite, by the sixth is closing in quickly. This weekend’s episode, “The Door”, has the potential to blow the doors off of the season. I have this feeling that the writers have something big planned for the half-way point this season. With the impending Ramsay-Stark battle coming, Got has a lot of ground to cover, and fast.
First, let’s check out the synopsis:
Tyrion seeks a strange ally, Bran learns a great deal, Brienne goes on a mission, Arya gets a chance to prove herself.
And now the preview:

My thoughts:
-The question is, is Tyrion seeking an ally we have already met, or will it be an entirely new character? The Meereen story has been frankly crap, and needs to start picking up, because wasting Tyrion away like this is a shame.
-Bran learns a great deal is quite obviously from the trailer: he is going to be learning the extent of the impending White Walker army. The only question is, is Bran’s vision going to take place in the past, present, or future?
-Brienne of Tarth, who is currently at Castle Black, is going on a mission that I am willing to bet either involves, or is commanded by, Jon Snow. Brienne is still sworn to Sansa, and Sansa is obviously going to defer to Jon when it comes to “mission” type decisions. Plus, there is no way we visit Castle Black without seeing Jon.
-If you like Littlefinger, stop reading my articles and go re-evaluate your life.
-Arya getting to prove herself should mean that she is going to get her first assassination assignment as No One. I say should because, as we know with Game Of Thrones, it is always wise to expect the unexpected.
-No sign of Daenerys, but after her HUGE scene last week, I can’t imagine them skipping out on her this week.
